Happy 8th Birthday Wyatt!

Wyatt has been celebrating his 8th birthday for over a week!  On his real birthday (Jan. 22nd), Jerry picked Wyatt up at school and took him out to lunch!  He loved his breakfast burrito!  That afternoon he celebrated with his class.  They sang him Happy Birthday and he passed out his treats...M&M cookies and milk.  YUM! 

Passing out birthday treats at school!
For dinner, Mimi wanted to take him out.  He picked Red Lobster so that he could have crab legs...delish!  Afterwards we headed back to Mimi's house so he could play with the gift that Mimi got him.  He LOVES his Anki race track!

Last Sunday, we had a family party at my mom and dad's.  He requested SpongeBob mac and cheese for dinner...ha ha and brownies for dessert. 
Grandma and Papa got him some new Nerf weapons!  Watch out!

He loves his Rudolph that the Robinette's got for him!
Cool comfy chair from the Ferullo's!
 

Wyatt has always loved stuffed animals, but especially dogs.  He can't get enough of his new Paw Patrol stuffed animal named Chase. 

We got Wyatt this Zippy Sac!  He saw it on a commercial and was so happy when we put it on his bed.  It's a cross between a sleeping bag and fuzzy blanket.  Isn't he cute???!!!
Happy Birthday to our sweet boy!!! xoxoxo

My 40th Birthday & Wyatt's 8th Birthday!!!!! :)


My 40th birthday was AMAZING!  It started with Jerry going to get me a breakfast burrito before school...yummy!  At school I was greeted at the playground with flowers and cards from my students.  At lunch my 3rd grade team sang to me and brought in a cheesecake for dessert!  At the end of the day, my room mom's brought in a cupcakes, drinks, and a beautiful bouquet of flowers full of gift cards from my sweet class!  For dinner, my mother-in-law Linda took us to eat at Ah-So...delish!  When I got home my mom and dad surprised me with 40 glow in the dark balloons!!!  What a memorable day!!!  I'm spoiled!  

I can't believe I'm 40!!!
 
 When I asked Wyatt what he wanted to do for his birthday this year he said he wanted to go on a sleigh ride in Flagstaff!  So, our entire family headed up north for a wonderful weekend in the snow!  The kids loved the sleigh ride, staying at the Drury Hotel, and sledding on Sunday!  I can't believe that my baby is going to be 8 years old on Jan. 22nd! Wyatt is so loving, fun, and silly!  
Brody let Wyatt open up his birthday gift early so that he could use his Janimals in Flagstaff!  Have you ever seen such a cute puppy?!!!

Trixie didn't know what to think about this new puppy in the house!  Ha ha!
 
Sleigh ride at the Hitchin' Post Stables in Flagstaff, AZ.  I love this family of mine with all of my heart!!!  xo
 

I love this picture of my mom and dad!

We're off!  Woo hoo!  Our horses names were Jack and Daniel!  We had such a pretty view of the Coconino Forest on our ride!

Fun times with my crew!

Our boys are getting so big!

Happy 8th Birthday buddy!!!

After a stop to get warm by the fire and drink some hot cocoa, we were ready to head back to the stables. :)

We were so happy to find a sledding hill at Crowley Pit outside of Flagstaff!  Go Brody!

Wyatt wanted to slide down on his belly like a penguin!

This is one happy birthday boy!  He got to do everything he wanted in Flagstaff!!!

Brody and Tatum are so cute together!

Mom and dad loved watching the kids sled!

These boys loved having snowball fights more than sledding!  They couldn't get enough of it!

Amanda, Natalie, and Tatum had fun too!

Check out this snowman that the kids built!  Love it!

I'm so blessed to be the mother of these two boys!  It's my greatest pleasure being their mom and Jerry's wife!  Love them to pieces!

The DUNES!!!! :)

Our family headed to the dunes to celebrate the new year!  We stayed for three nights in a rented trailer with our very good friends (The Halley's).  The boys LOVED getting to ride their quads at the dunes!  We went to Glamis (near Brawley, CA) this time which was AMAZING!  Jerry had fun taking us out on Can Am rides.  Jerry is already planning the next trip!  :)
The Laubmeier Family!  :)

Ready to roll!!!!  Follow the leader!

Wyatt with his best friend Connor!

I've never seen anything like this...vendor row!  They had shops, food, supplies, etc.

We LOVE the Halley family! xo

Oldsmobile Hill was CRAZY!  Do you see all of the people at the top?  Jerry took the boys up that steep hill and they LOVED it! :)

Cutie pies with their goods from vendor row!

Smores time!

YUMMY!

I couldn't believe my eyes when I saw that they had Thrifty's ice cream!!!!  They even had my favorite flavor...chocolate malted crunch!  Woot woot!!!

They boys had so much fun playing in the sand at the dunes!  They would crawl, roll, and draw in the sand.  Here's Wyatt and Connor...aren't they cute?!

Jerry was the designated leader of the pack!  :)

GO BRODY!!!!  He got this new flag at vendor row.  It's says "Sand Style".  Cool!

I LOVE this group picture!!!  The boys and their toys!!!
